Cannot checkout a branch / worktree shows multiple branches for the same directory

Hi,

I stumbled upon an interesting problem when checking out a branch.
I had to switch to a testing branch to merge in some changes from yet
another branch, but when I tried to check out the testing branch I got
a message saying that I'm already on the target branch.

I used worktree a few times, but the checkouts were always in their
own directories.
It crossed my mind that this behaviour may be related, so I took a
look at the worktree list and noticed that according to that list
there are three branches at the same time in one directory.

It may be a conicidence and I have no confidence in saying that these
issues are related.
Can someone shed some light on this issue for me?
